How does CJC-1295 work?

It binds the GHRH receptor on the pituitary gland, prompting growth hormone release the same way the body's natural growth hormone releasing hormone does, but its modified structure resists the rapid breakdown that limits the natural hormone and sermorelin to minutes of activity. The DAC version's long half life means its effect on growth hormone release is sustained over days rather than delivered as a single pulse.
